IoTize TapNLink wireless connectivity products for MCUs

IoTize’s line of TapNLink products for Bluetooth and NFC communication allow the user to take an existing MCU application that does not have wireless connectivity and add it using only two GPIO pins and without modifying the application’s original firmware.

This approach is suitable for companies that are fast-tracking their wireless integration projects to meet users’ changing expectations. The line is claimed to reduce design effort and risks by a factor of 10, speeding time to market of smartphone-based interfaces for product configuration, monitoring and control.

The line will help users including multinationals, SMEs and hobbyists bring a configurable solution to any project by adding Bluetooth and NFC communication to existing MCUs. Applications that would benefit from this instant wireless connectivity include factory machinery, control and monitoring, cable replacement, point-to-point data transfer, building automation, automated lighting, and inventory and tracking systems.
